I've been calling for a new pp coach since the cup run 2 years ago and it's to the point where the blame for me starts lying on gillis for not realizing brown is terrible. I love everything gillis has done with this team but how long is it going to take him to realize the problem is the coachings lack of creativity

But of course the "cool response" is to make a joke of a solution to something's that's been a huge problem for the team for well over a year now. Yep lets just keep everything how it is and just expect things to change without doing anything about it. U sure ur not browns family since that's exactly what he's been doing?

AV would rather throw young offensive prospects under the bus, and preach that the players are responsible for motivating themselves because he doesn't have damn clue how to do it. It's never AV's fault. The guy is a complete ***** and will never take accountability for the way this team is responding. Remember after the playoffs where he pretty much said he didn't expect dan sedin to miss the playoffs so he didn't try things out to prepare for such an event? Typical AV. Everything that happens is never his fault. I will be so glad when he's out of here. Good riddance.

Blah. Coaching really, really sucks right now. I don't know how anyone can dispute it. When your coach is promoting players for playing badly (Lapierre), putting a rookie with no experience playing the point on the point of the 1st PP unit of a struggling PP, unable to adjust to two man forecheck the whole season, etc.

Realistically it's really the only move this team can make right now to have some sort of a positive impact.

Even if it's only to say to the players: This is on you. I had to do this because of the way we are performing as a team. If you like living in Vancouver, you'd better reflect it in your execution otherwise further changes will be made.
